Sole Source Justification. Roche requires a Maintenance Service Contract be maintained on the Instruments for continued use as they are the manufacturer of this equipment. Original manufacturer service is required to avoid nullifying the warranty. Any equipment failure would adversely affect NCI/NIH clinical center patients and their optimal care. All vendors contacted declined service due to the patent rights of Roche Diagnostics. This item is proprietary, and no other vendor can provide this service.
